Bolt the Y Carriage to the Y rail using (4) m3 x 8mm button head bolts. Make sure they're snug.
You may want a dab of loctite on the bolts for attaching the Y carriage to the Rail, they're hard to get to later.

Step 2 Attach BLTouch to BLTouch Mount

Put (2) m3 x 16mm Button Head Bolts pointing up through the holes in the BLTouch.

Step 4 Part Cooling Fan and Y Endstop Install

The Y endstop and part cooling fan share a cable harness, so we need to install them at the same time.

Start by inserting the 5015 Blower fan into the layer shroud. It just fits a bit loosely, don't break anything cramming it in.
